The Human Touch in a Tech-Driven World

Conference

2026-01-30 | 09:45 AM - 10:30 AM

In this thought provoking and pragmatic session, Rachel Hughes of EDIT Development explores how leaders can navigate a future defined by technological acceleration while strengthening the connection that has always powered our industry. 
 
Effective leaders cultivate inclusive cultures, build trust across every level of the organisation - including with exhibitors, visitors, partners and clients - and inspire genuine human connection in an increasingly digital environment. At the core lies the human touch: the heart of leadership that sparks growth, nurtures collaboration and ensures our people - and our events - continue to thrive in a future shaped by innovation.
